Speaking of feeling old, I was especially depressed last year around my birthday, as the "number" was one that sounded old to me (irrational [not the number, my reaction] -- not a milestone number or anything, just one that sounded old.)
Well, as luck would have it, I had miscalculated my age (that's what happens when you get old), and I was actually one year younger than my "old-sounding" age; I had a new lease on life! I had been granted a reprieve!!
However, now it's time to pay the piper. My birthday is fast approaching, and that number is looming. Although, now that I've had a year to get used to it, it doesn't trouble me as it did last time around.
(I told you my minimalist period would be short lived!)
